I bought the BlendTec in April this year. I now make 3 types of smoothies a week and put them in the fridge. I have also been making new pie filling recipes, juices, etc. it is my best tool to eating healthier - getting more fruit & veggie helpings every day.
Absolutely love my designer series blendtec. They are so powerful and well made its a lot of fun blending things up everyday! Highly recommend, don't settle for anything else, Blendtec is best!
Have muddled through with sub-par blenders for years, suffering icebergs in my frozen drinks and veritable jungle foliage in my green smoothies, I can't rave enough about the Blendtec Designer Series (WildSide). This one makes short work of everything, to the extent that smoothies are now an everyday thing in my house. It's ridiculously easy to clean - no more allowing the jar to sit on the counter hoping it will clean itself. It's still loud - it IS a blender, after all - but FAR quieter than I had expected given its power. My family was so impressed that we spent a good hour exploring the "Will it blend?" channel on YouTube. Love watching cooking shows now or going to a local coffee/smoothie bar and having my kids point out "look Dad: they use a Blendtec". And the soft-touch controls? WAY cool. GREAT JOB!!!
We have had this blender for two months now. We researched blenders for a long time prior to purchasing. It makes awesome green smoothies for my husband and kids every morning. It also makes a killer milkshake and margarita for the not as healthy times!
I bought this blender a little over a months ago and so far it is the best blender I have ver owned! I made sure to research since I was going to spend some money and the Blendtec came out on top!!! Love that I can make ice cream to soup in the same blender!!!!
